Verdict

It was only a seller that MADE IN THE SHADE won at Beverley last time but that's still better form than any of today's opponents have managed recently. Premier Choice makes his handicap and seasonal debut and may do better this year and the same comment applies to Koolgreycat. Busy Bimbo is 5lb lower than when third over C&D in October and Miserere Mei may do best of the remainder though she still looks a shade high in the weights.
